  1. Under FDNY regulations, which of the following is a fireguard NOT authorized to do?

    Answer: Disable a fire alarm system to reduce false alarms

    A fireguard is never authorized to disable a fire alarm system; only qualified technicians with FDNY approval may do so.

  2. A building's fire alarm panel shows a 'supervisory' signal. What does this indicate?

    Answer: A monitored system (e.g., sprinkler valve) may be impaired or off-normal

    A supervisory signal indicates a monitored system condition — such as a closed sprinkler valve — that may impair fire protection.

  3. According to FDNY fire watch requirements, what must a fireguard do if they feel too ill to safely continue their tour?

    Answer: Notify building management immediately and ensure a qualified replacement is on duty

    If ill, the fireguard must immediately notify building management to secure a qualified replacement before leaving the post.

  4. Which of the following scenarios requires the fireguard to make an entry in the fire watch log even if no action is taken?

    Answer: Observing a fire door being propped open temporarily by a delivery person

    Any observed fire safety condition — including a propped fire door — must be logged, even if it is quickly corrected.

  5. What is the primary purpose of the FDNY-required fire watch log book?

    Answer: To provide a written record of fire safety conditions and actions taken during the watch

    The fire watch log provides an official written record of conditions observed and actions taken, which can be reviewed by FDNY.

  6. A hot work permit issued by the building owner is valid for how long under NYC fire code?

    Answer: The duration of the specific job only — one day at a time

    Hot work permits are issued for one day at a time and cover only the specific work authorized for that day.

  7. When recording tour times in the fireguard log, which time format is required by FDNY?

    Answer: Either format is acceptable as long as it is legible

    FDNY accepts either 12-hour AM/PM or 24-hour military format as long as entries are clear, accurate, and legible.
